Nicholas Bennett moved from the bar to Farrer six years ago and is ‘on the way to being one of their main partners in the coming years’, says an industry observer, who praises his ‘thoughtful and measured approach and enormous intellectual capacity’. The lawyer, who lectures at Oxford University, specialises in prenups and international divorce disputes, which dovetails with a talent for languages (he speaks French, German and Italian). Prenups – on which he is a thought leader in the field – comprise 60 per cent of Bennett’s work, and he believes they should become law. ‘They’re an insurance policy and they offer both families a sense of security,’ he says.
